connect two propane cylinders together with pipe. Put a pressure valve on it for safety purposes. Put a fill valve on top of one and a release valve on the bottom of the other. Connect the release valve to a piece of pipe so you can direct it. Put the cylinder with the release valve into a tub of dry ice and direct the pipe out a hole in the side. Put household ammonia in the top valve of one. Maintain a temperature of −33.34 °C, 240 K or slightly above. As the hydrogen evaporates from solution it will condense on the cold side and drip to the bottom. If you connect a small container... (prefferably something that will seal automatically when disconnected) to the end of the pipe and something that will handle the pressure of the ammonia as temperature rises to ambient temperature. You now will have almost pure ammonia. As long as you stay away from breaking the bonds of hydrogen and oxygen that form water (by boiling it). By the way use all steel pipe and better if they're welded joints. Do not use any brass as ammonia reacts with brass violently. Your pressure valve and final container/pressure tank must be one designed specifically with that in mind so there will be a little cost involved.

What is anhydrous ammonia?
Anhydrous means no water. Anhydrous ammonia is a gas.
What is chemical symbol for anhydrous ammonia?
The chemical symbol for Anhydrous Ammonia is NH3.
What is temperature of anhydrous ammonia?
Anhydrous ammonia melts at -77.7º C, and boils at -33.3º C.
What is the difference between ammonia and anhydrous ammonia and ammonium hydroxide?
Anhydrous ammonia is really just ammonia in fact. "Anhydrous" means without water, and anhydrous ammonia is just pure ammonia without water.It is to distinguish it from ammonia in water solutions because when added to water ammonia forms ammonium hydroxide:NH3 + H2O ---> NH4+ + OH-Ammonium hydroxide is frequently referred to as ammonia because you make it by adding ammonia to water, but it isn't really ammonia. It is much more commonly though because it is easier to handle (ammonia is a gas).See the Web Links for more information about ammonia.
How do you make anhydrous sodium carbonate?
Using the Solvay (or Ammonia-Soda) Process.

What is the percent of ammonia in anhydrous ammonia?
99.95%(pure ammonia) or better is Refridgeration grade ammonia.
Can anhydrous ammonia become liquid ammonia?
Anhydrous ammonia is usually stored as a liquid by keeping it under pressure. It is more efficient to store it that way than as a gas.
Were can you buy ammonia hideous?
Sorry, I do not answer to the name 'Hideous'. However, if you mean "Anhydrous", I make my own :-)!
What turns anhydrous ammonia to liquid?
Anhydrous Ammonia (aka, NH3, Refrigeration Grade) can be turned into a liquid by either intense cooling or by compressing the gas.
What is the difference between anhydrous ammonia and aqua ammonia?
Anhydrous ammonia is standard, commercial grade ammonia. The term "anhydrous ammonia" emphasizes the absence of water in the material. Because ammonia boils at -33.34 °C, the liquid must be stored under high pressure or at low temperature. Aqua ammonia is another name for ammonium hydroxide, a solution of ammonia in water. This is the household ammonia offered in stores and used in some cleaning products.
What is the role of ammonia in the production of fertilizer?
Ammonia is used as a nitrifier...generally in the anhydrous form.
How is ammonia used in Oklahoma agriculture?
Anhydrous ammonia is used to provide nitrogen to the soil.
